Chapter 199: The Sorrow of the Soul
Yes, no matter how firm the mind is, but in the end, the eight million bhikshus are just a woman, although they are a mermaid. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Like all fairy tales about mermaids known to people in the world, the feelings of mermaids are ultimately hurt, poignant, and tragic in the end.
Compared with the mermaids in those stories, the eight million bhikshus are already very lucky, at least in the first half of her life, she has achieved her own happiness, and her husband is also smiling and walking through her life safely.
So with that alone, eight million bhikshus are already thousands of times happier than those mermaids.
However, life is impermanent, things will not always develop for the better, and the so-called life with ups and downs is the real life, and this is the same for the mermaid's eight million bhikshus.
The dream-like good days are over, and then the loneliness is over.
Although since ancient times, human beings around the world have envied or searched for the method of immortality countless times.
However, when it is realized, you will find that everything will eventually get tired and everything will be boring.
The so-called good flowers are not always beautiful, and the beautiful scenery is not always there, and for anything at this time, only a blink is the most beautiful moment.
Eight million bhikshus stayed alone in the empty boudoir for more than 800 years as surviving people, and finally chose to go on a hunger strike.
On the small island of Ruoxia, under the wind-breaking thatched hut, a woman who had survived in the world for more than 800 years finally bid farewell to the world.
I thought that everything would end like this, and it would end like this, so that this story could draw a complete end that was not beautiful, but it was complete enough.
However, no one would have thought that because the 800 bhikshus were mermaids, that is to say, she was not in the six realms of humanity, heaven, beasts, asura, hell, and hungry ghosts.
It is not in the Tengu Dao of the Buddhist family, so the eight hundred bhikshus who died still had a great obsession with their husbands during their lifetime, and now they have become the earthly spirits here.
"Concubine...... Is this a virgin? ”
The eight hundred bhikkhus, who were spirits, muttered to themselves as they looked at their figures, which had been shrunk several times over.
"Zashiki virgin...... The concubine body, that's it, let the concubine continue to protect her husband as a virgin. ”
As he spoke, his figure flashed and disappeared.
In fact, the reason why the 800 bhikshus sighed just now was because she remembered that her husband had told her the story of a Zashiki virgin before, and that story was very sad.
First of all, before mentioning this story, let's give a general explanation of what a Zashiki virgin is.
Zashiki Tong (girl) is a local Japanese goblin. It is attached to the family as a child, and it is said that as long as there is a Zashiki boy, the family will prosper.
Zashiki has a very mischievous personality, sometimes making loud footsteps in the middle of the night to keep others awake or bullying children.
For example, when you are alone in your house, she makes strange noises to scare you, but she sometimes warns you in advance of when a fire will break out so that you can prevent it from happening.
Moreover, Zashiki is not like an animal spirit, but if a human accidentally offends her, she will leave without saying a word.
If the Zashiki boy leaves, the family will definitely be left behind.
In the poor agricultural era, it was not uncommon for people to kill newborn babies because they could not afford to raise children.
In Japanese mythology, children cannot become Buddhas without fulfilling their obsessions after death, so legend has it that these dead infant spirits are the true face of Zashiki Boys.
The story of the Zashiki virgin mentioned to her by the husband of the 800 bhikshus is a little different, and the story goes like this.
Somewhere in Kanagawa Prefecture there used to be a little girl and her mother living in a small dilapidated house.
Because the girl's father has passed away for many years, and the girl's mother is riddled with illness, the life of the mother and daughter can be said to be very difficult and poor, and they can only rely on the girl to go up the mountain every day to collect medicine.
But one morning, after that, the little girl went out to collect medicine as usual, and never returned.
But every day the girl's mother could always see fresh herbs at the door of her dilapidated house.
These herbs are not only enough to sustain oneself, but even cure one's own diseases.
The mother was puzzled, but after asking all the villagers, they didn't know who had put the herb.
So one day my mother hid in front of her house. In the early morning, she saw the figure of a little girl in the haze appear at the door of her house.
The little girl was still holding a handful of herbs in her hand, and her mother vaguely realized that it was her missing daughter.
The mother went out in despair, but the girl walked up the hill as if she couldn't see her mother.
In order to further know her daughter's whereabouts, the mother held back tears as she walked behind her daughter.
Finally came to a cliff, and then I saw the little girl standing in front of the cliff looking at her mother, tears falling one by one.
"Xiaoyun!"
The mother excitedly called out her daughter's name.
The little girl shook her head, still in tears, and soon she turned and jumped and disappeared into the clouds.
"Xiaoyun!"
The mother called her daughter's name with tears in her eyes, and walked to the cliff, only to see her daughter's medicine basket and a shoe on the ground.
The herbs in the medicine basket had turned yellow, and the shoe, which had been red, had faded.
Some people say that maybe this is because the little girl didn't eat every day, and then starved to death, but after death, the soul is still worried about her mother's illness, so she also brings medicinal herbs to her mother every day.
Some people also say that it may be that the girl can't bear the pain of hunger, and before she finishes curing her mother's illness, she persistently finds medicinal herbs every day... However, the pain of her life gave her faith in bringing happiness to others.
Some people also say that the girl may have accidentally fallen off a cliff and died while going up the mountain to collect medicine, but the girl was concerned about her mother's illness, so even after she died, she still collected herbs for her mother every day.
However, no matter what you say, the little girl had too much obsession during her lifetime, and after her death, she became a virgin in the family, until she fulfilled her wish before her death, that is, after seeing her mother stand up again, the little girl successfully became a Buddha.
Although this story is over, the 800 bhikshus who are also Zashiki virgins are very stunned, after all, no matter who they are, the reason why they become Zashiki spirits is because they either have too deep attachments to their lives, or they have resentments. In short, either way, it's painful. (To be continued.) )
